“The vehicle is equipped with brake assist system which is supposed to help to engage the brake pedal faster when the brakes are applied during a panick stop. During a panic stop, in my case at 10 MPH, when I hit the breaks, the brake pedal felt hard as a rock and refused to travel down, exhibiting the so called hydraulic resistance with the the vehicle continuing to move and colliding with the vehicle in the front. I took my e320 to an authorized local mbz dealer, autobahn motors in belmont-ca, within two hours of the accident for a check of the brakes. …”
